Chapter 1161: Chapter 1161: Are You Trying to Murder Your Husband?
As she retreated towards the head of the bed, her knee forcefully thrust upwards.
Whether he did it intentionally or not, she needed to show him she wasn’t to be trifled with.
She, a woman of the Seventh Young Master, was not so easily bullied!
"Ah!"
With a stifled scream from the man, Xia Yinian fumbled for the switch and turned on the lights.
"You..."
Just as Xia Yinian was about to curse, an incredibly familiar face appeared before her, leaving her utterly shocked.
"Beicheng, how could it be you? I’m not dreaming, am I, I..."
Seeing the face she longed for, she was so flustered that she didn’t even realize the blanket slipped from her hands.
"Beicheng, I missed you so much."
Xia Yinian spread her arms around the man’s neck in front of her, completely forgetting his earlier actions.
"Beicheng, is it really you? I’m not dreaming."
Biting her lip, Xia Yinian released him after weakly biting his firm shoulder.
"It really is you, I thought I was dreaming."
Only then did Xia Yinian notice the situation; her body seemed to be blocked by something, she could barely hold his neck, not too close.
Looking down, Xia Yinian felt both shy and distressed.
"Wha-what’s wrong?" she asked, glaring with wide eyes, looking up at the man kneeling before her.
"Are you attempting to murder your husband?" Gu Beicheng finally spoke.
His expression held a touch of seriousness, which in Xia Yinian’s eyes seemed to be suppressing something.
"No, I... thought it was that guy Leng Zhishuo, I didn’t know... but I..."
"So concerned, yet planning a trip with him?" Gu Beicheng furrowed his brows slightly.
"I really missed you, truly." Xia Yinian didn’t know how to explain, but she was genuinely anxious.
Thinking about it, even though Brother Leng wouldn’t do anything to her, at least she was spending the night in the same room with a man, and it seemed her man had caught her in the act.
"You said it yourself, Brother Leng is one of us; he definitely wouldn’t do anything to me, right?"
The reasons seemed sufficient, but Xia Yinian’s voice was so weak that even she could barely hear it.
"Brother Ling Qian told me this place was chaotic and advised me not to come, but when I thought this had to do with the Qianqiu Sect, I just couldn’t help it..."
"You haven’t contacted me for so long, I was worried... huh? I worried about you for a whole week, how could you scold me?"
Xia Yinian pouted her lips, pulling the blanket up, sitting on the bed with a sulking lip, not speaking.
"You mean I got hurt by you, yet I shouldn’t have any complaints?" Gu Beicheng sighed.
Why didn’t he realize this girl had such a strong impact? His abdomen still faintly ached.
If he had been half a second slower, he might indeed worry about not being able to make her happy.
However, seeing her improvement, he could feel a bit more at ease.
Hearing Gu Beicheng’s words, Xia Yinian remembered her earlier kick and the situation she just witnessed.
"I’m sorry! I didn’t know..."
She pouted, wanting to console him, but with the injury in such a place, she didn’t know what she could do.
"I really didn’t expect you to appear so suddenly, I thought I was with someone else... so out of fear, I accidentally hurt you."
"Beicheng, are you alright?"
Xia Yinian stared unblinkingly at Gu Beicheng’s face, her gaze daring not to drift down.
